Default F355 Berlinetta goes down!

This was one of those times I wish I was recording. I was coming home from work and got on the highway. I saw the taillights that I knew were a 355, so I sped up and got next him(minimal traffic). We were cruising next to each other at about 75 and I was baiting him, revving a little, blipping the throttle. His girl in the passenger seat laughed, then turned and said something, then he went for it. I was already downshifted in 3rd gear, at 80 at this point, and on we went. By 125 I had him by 3 carlengths.

I just looked it up, says they should run 12.9's in stock form, which this most certainly was. I am chalking this up to that guy not knowing how to drive and maybe selecting the wrong gear on the downshift, but his girls face was priceless when I started pulling

Good kill, I do love those 355's though. Prolly just a rich ***** that doesn't know how to drive what he has.

I think the 355 is one of the best sounding Ferraris out there, Im also guessing that the guy diddnt know how to drive seeing that both of your 1/4 times are almost the same.

good kill, I bet the 355 sounded amazing. like below:

That was my first in this car

My old car(95 Z28) I had a Lambo Countach under my belt, but still a Lambo. The best part about the older exotics is that the drivers drive them like they are as fast as the newer ones, when in reality they are not on that level at all.

^ that vid prolly has a tubi exhaust, won't sound like that stock...

the guy u killed prolly talks mad stuff to his g/f about his mad tyte ferrari that can nevaa looose, and of course you already know shes dumb enough to think ferrari = fastest car ever made

you must be a hell of a driver to run a 12.8 with basically no mods, especially in a 'vert, damn.

Good kill! I bet it feels pretty cool to beat a "supercar." Id love to race one but there arent too many exotics in SC.

Lotsa fun to see the look on their faces when their exotic gets pulled on.
